Milan seemed to have lost its symmetry for Lorenzo Moretti. The man who once found pleasure in the exactness of numbers and the coldness of balance sheets now wandered through his own empire like a stranger. Three days had passed since the silence of the penthouse had become unbearable, and Lorenzo discovered that the authority of a CEO was worth nothing against the void left by a free-spirited woman. He tried to focus on work, but Sofia Duarte’s trace was everywhere: in the restoration project

  • The CEO’s Fake Bride   The CEO's Secret Wife - Chapter 4

    He ran a hand through his hair, pretending to be frustrated.“Yesterday I saw the credit card bill. We’re in the red. If we don’t do something, we’ll have to delay the rent or cut basic things. I didn’t want to tell you this the day after our wedding, but… I can’t hide it anymore.”Isabella felt a tightness in her chest. She came from a humble family and knew what hardship was like. Seeing her husband — the man she loved more than anything — worried like this broke her heart.“Lewis… why didn’t you tell me before?” she asked softly, squeezing his hand.“Because I wanted to give you the best. I wanted our marriage to be perfect, without worries. But reality hit. I work a lot, I stay late at the office, but the salary doesn’t keep up with the cost of living here in Minas. BH and the surrounding area are ridiculously expensive. Rent is going up, groceries are in

    The morning light filtered timidly through the thin motel curtains. Isabella woke up first, her body deliciously sore from the brutal thrusts of the night before. She smiled as she felt Lewis’s strong arm wrapped possessively around her waist, even in his sleep. Her pussy was still throbbing, swollen and sensitive, with the remnants of his dried cum on the inside of her thighs. She felt marked. Claimed. It was the most perfect feeling in the world.She turned slowly on the mattress and watched her husband. Lewis Force slept with a relaxed expression, yet there was still something intense about his face. His chest rose and fell rhythmically, his defined muscles glistening slightly with sweat from the hot night. Isabella ran her light fingers over his abdomen, sliding down until she brushed against his semi-hard cock. He stirred but didn’t wake.“My husband…” she whispered, her heart overflowing with love.Lewis slowly opened his green eyes. A lazy smile formed on his lips when he saw t

  • The CEO’s Fake Bride   The CEO's Secret Wife - Chapter 2

    The wedding night took place in a discreet motel on the outskirts of the city. Lewis had reserved the presidential suite — the best the motel had to offer, though it was still far from the luxury he could actually provide. Isabella didn’t complain. For her, it was all fine.As soon as the door closed, the atmosphere changed.Lewis locked the door with a sharp click. Isabella turned to him, still wearing her wedding dress, biting her lower lip. He looked her up and down like a predator.“Take off the dress,” he ordered, his voice low and husky.Isabella felt her heart race. It was the first time he had spoken to her in such an authoritative tone. She obeyed, trembling slightly. She unzipped the side and let the dress fall to her feet, revealing a delicate white lace lingerie set she had bought especially for that night. The push-up bra enhanced her medium, firm breasts, and the thong barely covered her shaved pussy.Lewis let out a low growl of approval.“Fuck… look at you. So beautifu

    The small chapel on the outskirts of Santa Luzia seemed to have stepped out of a simple, romantic dream. Perched on a gentle hill and surrounded by a grove of eucalyptus and ipe trees that still held some pink blossoms from late spring, the Church of Nossa Senhora das Graças could barely accommodate the twenty or so people who had come to witness the wedding.The lighting was intentionally intimate: dozens of tall white candles flickered inside glass holders, casting soft shadows on the rough stone walls. A few warm LED lights, hidden behind vases of ferns, added a golden glow that made everything feel even more ethereal. There was no luxury. No ostentation. And it was exactly the way Isabella had dreamed of since she was a little girl.She walked slowly down the short central aisle, her heart beating so hard it felt like it might leap out of her chest. In her slightly trembling hands, she held a simple bouquet of white roses mixed with wild lilies and a few sprigs of lavender she had

  • The CEO’s Fake Bride   Bought by the Billionaire - Chapter 30

    The São Paulo skyline, seen from the terrace of the new unified headquarters of the Alliance of Equals, no longer looked like a battlefield but a vast ocean of possibilities. Caio Moretti stood by the glass railing, the morning breeze lightly stirring his shirt, but his gaze wasn’t on Bovespa indicators or the frantic movement of helicopters. He was waiting for the sound of Helena’s footsteps, the rhythm that had become the melody of his new existence. When she appeared, carrying two cups of coffee and that look of someone still guarding technological secrets capable of changing the world, Caio felt that the cycle of his own redemption was finally complete.They had built the future on foundations none of their predecessors would understand. DuarteTech and Moretti Capital now operated on an architecture of trust that eliminated the need for constant audits or barrier clauses. They lived a model of reciprocity where one’s autonomy fueled the other’s expansion. More than business partne

  • The CEO’s Fake Bride   Bought by the Billionaire - Chapter 29

    The rooftop of Hotel Fasano, on a night with a gentle breeze that seemed to caress São Paulo’s soul, framed what Caio Moretti now called his true peak. There was no urgency to close a billing cycle or rush to crush a competitor. Seated at a discreet table, Caio and Helena celebrated something the financial market could never price: the luxury of maturity. Between them lay no contracts or tablets with real-time quotes, only the comfort of a silence that no longer needed to be filled with justifications or power games.Caio observed Helena under the candlelight, noticing how her strength now shone without the defensive armor of the early days. He himself felt different. The weight of constant vigilance, the need to be the absolute sovereign of every variable, had given way to a lightness he never thought possible for someone with his surname. He had learned that the greatest privilege of his fortune was not the ability to buy the world, but the freedom to not need to own it to feel secu

  • The CEO’s Fake Bride   Chapter 19

    The night in Milan after the triumph at Palazzo Mezzanotte did not carry the usual chill; there was a dense calm and anticipation in the air of the penthouse, as if the glass walls had finally stopped being a protective dome and were becoming a home. Lorenzo entered the east suite, where Sofia was

    The grand hall of Palazzo Mezzanotte, headquarters of the Milan Stock Exchange, buzzed with Europe’s financial elite, but to Lorenzo Moretti, the scene felt more like a modern-day Colosseum. The annual Moretti Holdings event was the critical moment that Vincenzo and the Valenti Group had been waiti

    The silence that followed Sofia’s exit from Lorenzo’s office was not the productive silence he so cherished; it was a sonic absence, as though the oxygen had been sucked from the room, leaving only a sterile void. Lorenzo remained motionless behind his ebony desk, hands clenched into fists so tight

    The addiction began with small lapses in behavior, cracks almost imperceptible in the steel structure Lorenzo Moretti had built around himself. Under the blinding Milanese sun, which bathed the penthouse in a white, merciless light, the facade of the marriage of convenience had transformed into som
